Hello!

To solve this equation, we need to isolate the variable on one side of the equation to see what it equals. 

As you can see, 2.7 is added. To get it onto the other side and cancel it from the one side, you will subtract it from both sides as shown below. Note that because of the commutative property, we can switch the places of 2.7 and x.

x+2.7-2.7=17-2.7  (Note that 2.7=2.7 is 0 in this equation.
x=14.3

Our solution is x=14.3

I hope this helped you learn how to solve equations a bit better!

Answer:

<h2>Letter C</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look on the number line we see that there is a point on -3, another point on -1, 2, and 7.

These points tell us our answer, but the question states it doesn't have to be in any order.

As we look at answer A we see -3, 1, 2, and -7. That's incorrect since there is no positive 1 nor an -7.

As we look at answer B we see -3, 7, 1, and -2. That's incorrect since there is no positive 1, and not a -2.

As we look at answer D we see -2, 3, 1, and 7. That's incorrect since there is no positive 2, no positive 3, and no negative 1.

C has to be the correct answer since it's the only answer left and has the 4 numbers that are on the number line.

Therefore, the correct answer is C.

Best of Luck to you.

Solve and check equation 20 = 2r - 3r + 10
Andreas93 [3]

2r-3r+10=20

Move all terms to the left:

2r-3r+10-(20)=0

add all the numbers together, and all the variables

-1r-10=0

move all terms containing r to the left, all other terms to the right

-r=10

r=10/-1

r=-10

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

See Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Define the variables</u>

Let the entry fee be c and the hourly rate be m

Let the number of hours be x and the total amount be y

<u>Work to solve</u>

For Sami's skate

c = 6 and m = 2

For Brad's skate

c =10 and m = 1

<u>The equations</u>

The equation is derived using: y = mx + c

For Sami's skate

y = 2x + 6

For Brad's skate

y = x + 10

<u>When the cost are the same</u>

To do this, we equate both expressions

i.e.

y = y

2x + 6 = x + 10

2x -x = 10 - 6

x = 4

i.e. the cost are the same at the 4th hour

<u>What is the cost</u>

Substitute 4 for x in any of the equations

y = x + 10

y  = 4 + 10

y  = 14

<em>The cost is $14.00</em>
